Why are smells like cinnamon, pumpkin pie, and apple cinnamon so comforting?

Question

Seriously, it's already getting cooler where I live and it's usually the hottest part of the year. But as I've been going into stores and seeing HALLOWEEN and THANKSGIVING stuff already (oy), I've been craving apple cider and those "cozy" smelling candles. Is this "normal"? Are these smells comforting for most people? Or is it due to the fact that fall is my favorite season? It's still summer.... =/

Answer 1

Fall is my fav too! I guess it is sort of comforting to you, but not for me. Well maybe the apple bit but not the others.

Answer 2

cinnamon cinnamon cinnamon ,My Mother made Pumkin Pie with just a hint of cinnamon ,in the fall, have you also noticed that The Holiday ads are getting to be earlier every year ? Greed or survival?

Answer 3

Because they remind us of the beauty of Autumn and the cozy feelings that go along with that season.  

I love the Fall,  it's my favorite of all the seasons. ~smiles~
